Online stans are a small fraction of any star's fanbase and they all know it. A lot of movies despite getting trashed online makes a lot of money. Even some stars who are bashed 24/7 on stan twitter is quite popular and loved in real life.
i understand that getting critical acclaim and box office success are both important, deepika doing a big blockbuster movie is fine, she has done it before with movies like yjhd and hny and she has every right to do them, but her fans have held her to a high standard because deepika has created that standard, she has portrayed her self as someone who stands up especially for women, she threw out meetoob accused anirban blah from her foundation and stood with the meetoo movement during MAMI, and now knowing that she is working with a meetoo accused is a difficult thing for many of her fans to accept or wrap their heads around
i know online fans are a small fraction, the rest of the audience doesn't even know wats going on online and maybe alot of them don't even know about the meetoo movement, this luv ranjan film will probably end up being a hit, but its sad to think that alot more don't care about stuff like meetoo, coz it enables people like vikas bahl and Luv to gain power and money, i mean just reading those tweets of Luv that i posted shows he is a trashy guy
and like i said she can get a blockbuster with another director, there are so many directors who are not meetoo accused, she got that offer from anurag basu for imli, she is friends with farah and cud do her next if she wanted to, anyway at the end of the day its dp's choice
